When I was in third grade we lived in Cottage Grove Oregon. Turns out that near the reservoir was a flight path for practicing terrain following maneuvers.

A few years ago, we went to Costco - this happened to be during the Oregon International Airshow, and the Costco in Hillsboro, OR is right next to the airport. We got the family out of our car, and heard a low rumbling, so we figured we'd see a transport or maybe a single jet take off.

We stood in the parking lot for about 15 minutes watching. Best. Costco. trip. ever.
